Abstract
A thin film electronic display device having electrically conductive transmission lines disposed therein has embedded repair lines positioned to be electrically coupleable to the transmission lines internally to the display device so that an open circuit on a transmission line can be bypassed by a repair line electrically coupled to the defective transmission line. A method of repairing a defective transmission line in this electronic display device includes identifying the defective transmission line, electrically isolating the defective portion of the transmission line, and electrically connecting the transmission line to its associated repair line.
